Note that these illustrations show the Echo chassis with PCIe cards
removed, but it is not necessary for you to remove them.
WARNING: When handling computer products, take care to
prevent components from being damaged by static electricity;
avoid working in carpeted areas. Handle expansion cards only by their
edges and avoid touching connector traces and component pins.
Also, avoid touching the Echo chassis’ circuit boards and any of its
components.
WARNING: Connection of your upgraded Echo chassis to a
Thunderbolt 3 computer requires the use of a Thunderbolt 3
(40Gbps) cable, which features both a Thunderbolt icon ( ) AND the
number 3 on the connector housings. Similar-looking cables without
the Thunderbolt icon on its connectors are USB cables, and do not
support connection of the Echo chassis to your computer.
